MB-920 Practice Question: Describe the core capabilities of the finance and operations apps
A company uses Dynamics 365 Human Resources (HR) and wants to ensure that new employees are automatically assigned to the correct compensation plan based on their job and department. What must be configured?
⚠ Common exam trap
Many candidates confuse eligibility rules with manual workflows or per-position setup, thinking that automation requires a workflow or individual configuration, rather than understanding that Dynamics 365 HR's eligibility rules are the native mechanism for automatic compensation assignment based on job and department attributes.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
Define eligibility rules in the compensation plan to automatically assign based on job and department
In Dynamics 365 Human Resources, eligibility rules within a compensation plan define the criteria (such as job and department) that automatically assign employees to the correct plan upon hire. This ensures that the system evaluates the employee's attributes and applies the appropriate compensation structure without manual intervention, leveraging the built-in eligibility engine.
